WFT Wild Card Pre-Game Thread

New Orleans?

With qbs getting older and more protection it may become more of a useful tool.

Not sure I'd call that a rotation as much as it's an occasional substitution.

If we're talking about a rotation as in Smith and Heinicke trading off snaps or a series, that's something we usually only see in college.

If Alex Smith is no healthier than he was in Philly, we can't do what we need to do to win. As has been said here many times, we are indeed playing with House money in the first season of our team build. So, F it! What we need to do is throw caution to the wind on offense, go deep repeatedly, throw in some planned QB runs and RPO's, and break out some trick plays from page 342 of the playbook. Why? because we can't beat them playing straight up. No, we can't. Nobody is that lucky.

If Alex wants to play in this game, let him start and play his type of game. He deserves that. But if he struggles due to his injury, we need to go to plan B soon enough to win, if we're lucky enough to win that day.

This is probably a stupid idea but it is better than Hitler's plan to invade Russia.

Actually I don't think it is that stupid, you have to play to win and there is nothing for WFT to lose, TB are under pressure of expectation to win the Superbowl. Field goals aren't going to win it, if we can make Brady turn it over due to pressure then the best thing is to hit them in the mouth and see if they have a glass jaw.

Playoffs?...Playoffs?...well I'll be, we're in the playoffs, well it could be worst...we could be facing-Aaron Rodgers...what the heck...WFT 18-Bucs-17....we don't get in the end zone, but 6 field goals and tough defense get it done...WHY NOT!!!

Player of the Game = D Hopkins?

I'll take it.

Dustin Hopkins in the last 6 games:

13 of 14, or 93%

Was good to see Rivera let him work through his shit this year. Ended the season good on 79% of his kicks, only slightly below his career mark of 83%.

Random thought I guess, but thought important to note that we should think of confidence in our kicker as high going into this playoff game.

Agree. Hopkins had gone full trash mode prior.

The way we score, we need to convert every kick

Ive looked into the city of Tampa Bay .. holly fuck thats a shitty city.

Did You Know?

There is not a single beach in Tampa Bay. Thats right, right next to the Gulf of Mexico and it doesnt have one beach.

It has a Bay. A bay that is so polluted me being from Baltimore can talk shit about their bay and ours isnt even a Bay but part of the Patapsco River.

We were #1 in the league with only 2 players put on the COVID list between Aug-now. That is fantastic, great job to the team and staff for practicing safe habits to avoid unnecessary losses.

I hope you didn't jinx us.

I hope you didn't jinx us.

If I did, feel free to publicly shame me via signature or however you please. I think our success in that department has much more to do with our team recognizing how important it is to be disciplined in our prevention efforts, especially in regards to Rivera having cancer, than it is luck.
